This was a good book that showed the effect bullying can have on a child and even some warning signs a parent may notice in a child that is being bullied such as eating a lot at dinner or sudden nervousness. I had to take away star for how the situation was handled because instead of confronting the situation with an adults help the main character in essence got revenge on the bully and sought protection from a friends older brother.

This childrens series continues to be humorous and cute for children. It's quick and easy with colorful illustrations. George - who has worse luck than even me - is bullied on his first day of school. What I found especially funny were the names the bully bear chose to call George - Long ears and twitch nose! The end wrapped up a good idea of revenge (getting someone even bigger and tougher to walk with you and sabotaging the stolen lunch) Not always the best morals but cute for kids ( )
